Super Boredom!!!

I haven't been updating for the past two weeks. RT always makes me feel terrible and work had been extremely tiring.

I have been spending a great deal of my time on the 360 as usual, though I must admit, too much of it can get pretty boring, too. I wonder if I am experiencing 'burnout' from gaming (if there is such a thing).

I played Tales of Vesperia (which is nice) and Viva Pinata: Trouble in Paradise. I actually bought Viva Pinata on impulse at the thought of having my own penguin garden. Who would've thought a 'kid's game' can be so difficult and user-unfriendly. Maybe it is time I cut down until Guitar Hero World Tour arrives. haha.

Time to super-summarize what I did for the past two weeks:

1st Week:

I went for another outing with somee BoB forum members. This time it was at TCC at Millenia Walk. It was my first time there. I had baked rice though felt it was overpriced at $19+. We sat around, chatted and browsed through Duelist's photo albums containing two-years worth of booth babe pictures (no kidding).

We went to Starbucks later to chat some more and have drinks. I bought ice cold chocolate and dined on chicken pie. At the end of it all, Terrorisk said he could give me a ride and I got quite a surprise when he actually drove me right to my block. I was so grateful.

I watched Wall-E with Rhyfe on Saturday. It was a nice, heartwarming show. It's amazing how most of the story was told with just two lines ("Wall-Eee!" "Eeeve!") and a whole lot of (robotic) body language and expressions. That's all I can say because any more and I will give away the plot. haha. The trailers and media did a good job of not revealing anything about the story at all. It's pretty fun to watch because it is so unique.


2nd Week:

My former WoW guildie from Malaysia, Jyoshou, came to Singapore for a visit over the weekend. He asked me out along with his other WoW friends, FunkyHair, Gyunikuchan and so on. It was a last-minute thing as he only contacted me on MSN when he reached Singapore. haha.

We went to Plaza Singpura for dinner at Pastamania followed by drinks at TCC (oh my god! again). Everyone seems pretty excited about the Lich King expansion coming out at the end of the year. It makes me wonder if I will feel tempted to play again.

After the outing, I dropped by at Books Kinokuniya at Orchard to pick up the Mass Effect: Ascension novel. Looks like I will have something to keep myself occupied other than staring at the screen for hours everyday.
